Hi folks,

I have here an SVEC PCI combo ethernet card that I want to use the AUI
port on, rather than the 10baseT/2 (long story :-).  10baseT and 2 works
fine under the lnc driver on 2.2.6-release, but the lnc doesn't seem to
support the ifconfig media options, nor the link[1-2].

I've tried setting the card manually to the AUI port using the supplied
software, and the setting seems to have stayed in the EEPROM - but it
just doesn't look like it's being used.  Card reports itself as a NE2100
(C-LANCE) and the error being reported is "Device timeout -- Resetting".

Has anyone got any suggestions on how to deal with this particular
beast?

(Suggestions that I should get a "real" network to /dev/null :-)

AnnMarie
